## Synopsis

- This module provides declarative management of L3 interfaces on VyOS network devices.

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
aggregate - |  | List of L3 interfaces definitions
ipv4 - |  | IPv4 of the L3 interface.
ipv6 - |  | IPv6 of the L3 interface.
name - |  | Name of the L3 interface.
provider dictionary |  | Deprecated Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using `connection: network_cli`. For more information please see the Network Guide. A dict object containing connection details.
| host string / required |  | Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote device over the specified transport. The value of host is used as the destination address for the transport.
| password string |  | Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable `ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD` will be used instead.
| port integer | Default: 22 | Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device.
| ssh_keyfile path |  | Specifies the SSH key to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is the path to the key used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable `ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE` will be used instead.
| timeout integer | Default: 10 | Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error.
| username string |  | Configures the username to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable `ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME` will be used instead.

    - name: Remove eth0 IPv4 address
      vyos_l3_interface:
        name: eth0
        state: absent

    - name: Set IP addresses on aggregate
      vyos_l3_interface:
        aggregate:
          - { name: eth1, ipv4: 192.168.2.10/24 }
          - { name: eth2, ipv4: 192.168.3.10/24, ipv6: "fd5d:12c9:2201:1::1/64" }

    - name: Remove IP addresses on aggregate
      vyos_l3_interface:
